2. Description of the Related Art Rolling bearings use carbon steel for machine structures, alloy steel for machine structures, or high-carbon chromium steel. Particularly for bearings used in automobiles and industrial machines,
High carbon chromium bearing steel (SUJ 2) is most often used. This is because the strength required for the rolling bearing can be obtained by immersion quenching, and the quality is stable compared to carburizing quenching or induction hardening.
However, SUJ 2 has a C content of 0.95-1.10% by weight (hereinafter abbreviated as%).
, Cr: 1.30-1.60%, so that the cost was high, and since it was hard, spheroidizing annealing was indispensable when processing.

The reasons for limiting the components and the composition range in the present invention will be described in detail. C: 0.45 to 0.80% C forms a solid solution in the matrix, strengthens martensite, and improves rolling fatigue life. If it is less than 0.45%, sufficient rolling fatigue life characteristics cannot be obtained, so the lower limit was made 0.45%. On the other hand, if added over 0.80%, a huge carbide is generated,
In addition to shortening the rolling fatigue life, long-time diffusion annealing is required to dissipate the giant carbides, which lowers productivity. Therefore, the upper limit was set to 0.80%.

Si: 0.45% to 2.00% Si acts as a deoxidizing agent when smelting steel, and is added for the purpose of forming a solid solution in the matrix and improving the rolling fatigue life. Since this effect is remarkable at 0.45% or more, the lower limit is set to 0.45%.
However, if it exceeds 2.00%, the machinability will be significantly deteriorated, so the upper limit is set to 2.00%.

Mn: 0.45 to 2.00% Mn enhances the toughness of the base martensite by improving the hardenability of steel, and improves the rolling fatigue life.
If it is less than 0.45%, sufficient rolling fatigue life characteristics cannot be obtained, so the lower limit was set to 0.45%. On the other hand, if it exceeds 2.00%, the machinability will be significantly deteriorated. Therefore, the upper limit was set to 2.00%.

S: 0.025% or less S is positively added for the purpose of improving the machinability of steel. However, if added in excess of 0.025% , the forgeability deteriorates, so the upper limit was made 0.025% . Cr: 0.50% or less Cr promotes the spheroidization of carbides and improves the rolling fatigue life by forming a solid solution in the matrix. However, if the content exceeds 0.50%, no remarkable effect is obtained, and the cost is rather increased. In addition, it forms giant carbides when it is combined with C during the melting of steel, which reduces the rolling fatigue life and requires long-time diffusion annealing to dissipate it, which lowers productivity. Therefore, the upper limit was set to 0.50%.

Ti: more than 0.0020% and not more than 0.010% Ti is added to more than 0.0020% in order to combine with N and effectively improve the rolling fatigue life by increasing the hardenability of B. However, if added in excess of 0.010%, the nitride coarsens, and on the contrary, reduces the rolling fatigue life. Therefore, the upper limit of Ti
0.010%. B: 0.0005 to 0.0100% B is added for the purpose of improving machinability and improving the hardenability of steel, thereby increasing the strength of matrix martensite and improving the rolling fatigue life of steel. If it is less than 0.0005%, sufficient effect cannot be obtained, so the lower limit is 0.0005%.

% Mo, Ni, and Cu are added for the purpose of increasing hardenability and improving the rolling fatigue life of steel. However, if the content of Mo or Cu is too large, the forgeability of the steel is reduced.
In a large amount, lowering the hardness of the steel material and shortening the rolling fatigue life. Therefore, the lower limit of Mo was 0.1%, the upper limit was 1.0%, the lower limit of Ni was 0.10%, the upper limit was 1.00%, the lower limit of Cu was 0.05%, and the upper limit was 0.50%.

% V, Nb, and W combine with C in the steel to improve wear resistance and to add crystal grains to improve the rolling fatigue life and toughness. However, when all the elements are too much, the carbide is stabilized at a high temperature, the hardness of the steel material is reduced, the rolling fatigue life is reduced, and the forgeability of the steel is reduced. Therefore, the lower limits of V, Nb, and W are 0.05% and the upper limits are
